Guest aleksanderp3 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Also with linux running, we might be able to tap into the session and use a physical keyboard at first to test stability until IMF comes up... But first things first, get the kernel running B) Damn.. This was supposed to be an edit, not a reply.. Have you found more information about android for PXA312? Now for about a month im searching the net every night for about 2 hours and no luck. Let me know how far you are i think i can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure to post here ways in which those interested can help out :rolleyes: Well... I seem to remember that someone posted a picture of the insides of the omnia once.... That could help me finding out the right LCD driver.. The kernel has the wrong resolution because of this.. So if anyone has a picture of the insides of the omnia please..

Guest Akshay_LP Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Great Work! Although I understand almost next to nothing about what you've done but I do know you've gotten somewhere!

Guest BigDaemon Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 OK, i don´t know THAT much about Linux and next to nothing about Android, but: If you have the Kernel running on the Samsung i900, i guess a hard step is already done?! Is ANYONE working on this project now? And if not: Why did you stop it?? Thanks for your answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chomi7 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 I have a problem. When I run Haret, the screen freeze with the letters: Jumping to kernel... And it stop here. Can somebody help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigDaemon Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 hmm seemes like no one is interested anymore in getting Android on the i900 :-( I will get mine in a few weeks and will start playing around with haret and Android with my friends from university, but i guess i won´t even come closer on running android than you, because i don´t know very much about linux and ppc :-( too sad, android looks like a cool OS and the i900 is a very cool device...would be a better device with android ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest oxi Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 I have a problem. When I run Haret, the screen freeze with the letters: Jumping to kernel... And it stop here. Can somebody help me? Hi, I'm having exactly the same problem as chomi7. I followed though all steps, however I had to "make menuconfig", then saved with the defaults, before "make Image". Could this be wrong? Looking forward to help on this. Thanks, oxi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Girvo Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hey, top notch work so far! A booting kernel is great :D Now, what needs to be done from here? What is the next step? I'd love to help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest z720 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) I did successful to boot the kernel for omnia, but it stop at somewhere Driver 'sd' needs updating, please use bus-type method. For resolution, if you compile from source, you can try to find something *fb* in the arm folder, then search for the .xres or .yres and .pixclock.

Guest us1111 Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) Update (thanks to z720 for getting the resolution right for debugging) we can now boot into a shell... Which is unreachable because of lack of input (keyboard) :D Complete steps for booting the android linux kernel (updates follow as we progress): Install Dev Environment: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) gcc make kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2 git-svn curl Download Cross Compiler www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release642 Select: GNU/Linux (and then Advanced Packages / IA32 GNU/Linux TAR) Download and Unpack Cross Compiler (www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/package3686/public/arm-none-eabi/arm-2008q3-66-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2) # wget http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/...nux-gnu.tar.bz2 # cd /usr/local ; tar -xjvf /tmp/arm-2008q3-72-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 Download Kernel (Thans to Oliver Ford!) # git clone http://www.oliford.co.uk/hpipaq214/ipaq214.git v4 Change in Makefile: # vi /ANDROID/v4/Makefile ARCH ?= arm CROSS_COMPILE ?= /usr/local/xscale/arm-2008q3/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- Adjust resolution (Thanks to z720!) open the /arch/arm/mach-pxa/hpipaq214-lcd.c and change the folowing parameters: .xres = 240 .yres = 400 .pixclock = 96153. Compile kernel: make Image The compiled and with Haret runable image will be in "arch/arm/boot/Image" Download Haret (I used the PXA312 version from Oliver Ford from www.handhelds.com) http://www.oliford.co.uk/hpipaq214/files/h...aq214-aug08.exe Change Haret Settings (default.txt) set kernel "Image" Set ramaddr 0xa0000000 Set RAMSIZE 0x04000000 Set cmdline "root=179:2 rootdelay=3 rw init=/sbin/init" Set mtype 1653 Set kernelcrc 0 Set fbduringboot 1 Set forcefbduringboot 1 Bootlinux Booting..... If you copy the compiled Image to the directory in which you placed Haret, you should be off, the kernel will boot.. Mind you, this is just the booting kernel, the hard work will start from here! Thanx for the picture z720! Cross Compile busybox with static linking: cd busybox-1.13.2/ Change Makefile to have the cross compiler active again: ARCH ?= arm CROSS_COMPILE ?= /usr/local/arm-2008q3/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- Make the static busybox (make menuconfig first and disable all non wanted busybox commands, leave ash, init, rclinux and telnetd active for later use!): # LDFLAGS="--static" CFLAGS="--static" make # file busybox busybox: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, stripped Copy the busybox to the new initrd directory: # cp busybox /ANDROID/initrd # cd /ANDROID/initrd # ln -s busybox init # ln -s busybox ash # ln -s busybox rclinux # mkdir dev; mkdir sys ; mkdir proc # cp -dpr /dev/ttys1 /dev/ttys2 /dev/ttys3 /dev/ttys4 /ANDROID/initrd/dev Make the initrd.gz ramdisk fromout the initrd directory # find . | cpio --create --'format=newc' | gzip >../initrd.gz Copy it to the directory in which the kernel is placed... Change default.txt cmdline: Set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=8192 rootdelay=5 rootwait rw init=/ash lpj=loops_per_jiffy boot_delay=100" Boot and see why we need a keyboard now :) Next step is maybe auto configure network and start telnetd in the ramdisk :) Edited February 10, 2009 by us1111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shokka9 Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 well done guys...i been watching with interest. Because as soon as you have something usable, i will be using it. You have made progress from the beginning, when it was just an idea. Now it should (hopefully) move a bit quicker, i asssume the next problems have been encountered by some when trying to do the same as you (but on other devices). I wish i could offer something to you guys, but i could not help at this stage, this is way beyond my knowledge base. Keep it up and i cannot wait for the end(ish) product. Congrats for all your efforts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
